Q

Complete the missing spaces with changes in concentration, rate, and order of reaction.

17
Q

How is an initial rates practical carried out?

A

Vary the concentration of 1 of the reactants and measure the time taken to react the endpoint.

18
Q

How is rate of calculated the initial rates method.

A

rate = 1/t

19
Q

why is rate 1/t in the initial rates method?

A

As the concentration of the product formed at the end point of the reaction is
fixed, it
can be taken as a constant.

Q

What does a rate concentration graph looks like for a zero order reaction?

22
Q

What does a rate concentration graph looks like for a zero order reaction?

A
23
Q

During an experiment, How can the order of a reactant be changed to be come zero order?

A

Use a large excess of that reactant as the concentration change would be negligible so its concentration can be taken as constant.
